Pail Mall Gazette
Tho famous Blue Grotto of Capri has given
rise to one of tho most curious lawsuits which
have ever been heard. The Vita Napolitana,
writing on the subject, says that some years ago
an American became the possessor of that part
of Capri under which the Blue Grotto is STU
ated, and the owner asserts now tina. as the sur
face of the ground belongs to him. he is also the
owner of everything below it. which in this case
happens to be the grotto, which, however, is at
present the possession of the little town of
Capri, the administration Of which has NOT the
slightest inclination of giving up what is its own
to the Yankee.
The latter, on being informed of this, has be-
gun a lawsuit, the consequences of which,
whether he wins or loses the case, may DO very
serious In the former case he can permanently
njure the grotto by making hole through it's
ceiling, by which the marvellous reflections in
the interior will be lost forever. If he wins it,
the chances that be will close it to the public

Keeping apples on shelves is bad
practice. A shelf is apt to be high,
and thus both dryer and warmer than
any other part of the cellar On the
floor, especially of dry cellars, will be
found the lowest and most equable
temperature for fruit. Russell apples
or other very long keepers are best
preserved in barrels, putting in none
that have bruises or other defects, and
only moving when ready for use.
Apples in barrels should not be re-
handled during the winter. as they are
sure to speedily rot thereafter.-N y

SOUTH SEA IMAGES.
Gigantic Relics Found On the Ponape
and Easter Islands.

Gigantic Relics Found On the Ponape
and Easter Islands.
The success of one of our men-of-war
in securing one of the above images
from Easter Island for the Smithsonian
Institute has given fresh interest to the
peculiar remains on this little
island on the coast of Chile.
The origin of these inn
ages has been the puzzle of savants for
years, but it is only recently that it has
been discovered that similar erections
exist upon the Island of Ponape, or As
cension, one of the Caroline group, sit
uated in north latitude deg. 50 min.
and east longitude 15S deg. "a min. in
the Pacific Ocean. But little is known
to the general public regarding islands
on the Pacific out of the beaten track
of vayageurs. The whalemen, how
ever, that pursue the large cetacean
known as the sperm variety, in the
tropical seas, visit these delightful
rnooks to replenish their stock of provis-
ions and to lay in store of
fruits, pigs. and other provender,
before proceeding on their Arctic
cruise. The lazy life that
the islanders lead, the enervating eli
mate and desire to escape the work
on board ship, have been the causes of
many sailors deserving ut the points
touched. :Lured by the dark eyes and
graceful forms of the dusky island
women, they remain and lead "a dolce
far niente life. Upon many of the
islands that dot the vast Pacific, these
'.beach-conbers" are to be found. every
Jack his Jill and host of children
around him.
The Caroline group of islands belong
to Spain, but, as is characteristic Of the
Spanish, nothing has been done in the
way of exploration, and little is known
of them, except by traders or whalers-
Guam is the port. but at the islands OF
Saipan and Ponape whalers stop to re-
cruit. From information obtained by
n representative from one OF the whal-
ING captains the following account of
the ancient quins, situated upon Po-
nape. was obtained:
The beach of glistening Waite sand
and coral remains HAS growth OF
rank grass. reaching almost to the
water line. Dense groves OF palm

is reached.

The Typical Drummer.

a kind eff curiosity in 1he eyes of the

peculiar one, vested to great extent
with the same kind of interest that peo-
pie have in theatrical folks, or the
sporting fraternity. There are all
kinds of people in every profession,
and the ''Sam'l of Posen7' variety is
perhaps the least numerous of the en-
tire lot The two grand divisions in
the fraternity are the .'new men, and

gregation of freshness which is sup

review Of a peculiarly ferocious com
p1exion is said to be on the point of ap
pearing in Vienna. It's title, Der Frauea
Jeind (Anglice, 1.-THE Enemy of Woman'')
indicates the line it purposes taking up
The editor, one Herr Grose, has set before
himself the object of emancipating man
from his subsection to that doll, woman
who idiots ideaiize and fools bow down
before as to a divinity" Herr Grose is
good enough, however, to notify that there
are exceptions to this denunciation, and
generally exempts whole classes of the
sex from the scope of his review. His
venture seems to be made in good earnest
and is likely to pay its way, for of course
every Viennese lady will be only too anx.
ious to hand in her subscription.

Princess Louise of Lorne.

Princess Louise gave an undoubted i'm
petus to fine art in Canada when she was
there. She got to like the clear, cold
climate, the effects of snow and frost on
lake and forest, and the fast-rushing and
full-fowing rivers; but the accident she
met with when riding in covered sledge,
by injuring her health, spoiled her capac-
ity for enjoyment, and obliged her to re-
turn to Europe to seek at European water
ing places a cure for nerves that were
permanently affected. She quickly got to
feel that the Canadians were of indie
pendent character and in the democratic
current of the age, and with great affabil-
ity adapted herself to their temper

We often see children with red eruptions
on face and hands, rough, scaly skin, and
often sores on the head. These things in
dictate a depraved condition of the blood.
In the growing period, children have need
of pure blood by which to build up strong
and healthy bodies. If DIR. Pierce's Gold
en- Medical Discovery is given, the blood
is purged of it's bad elements, and ere
chi1d's development will be healthy, and as
it should be. Scrofulous affections, ricketts,,
fever-sores, hip-ioint disease or other grave
malades and suffering are sure to result
from neglect and lack of proper attention
to such cases.

A wall of whitish stone rises at the
summit nearly thirty feet high and
forming an irregular rectangle. The
stones composing the wall are from five
to six feet in length and
weighing several tons. Although
the sides of these gigantic stones are
perfectly smooth and of nearly equal
proportions, there is not the faintest
sign of a chisel mark. No cement has
been used to lay them in position and
gaps occur at intervals. At the single
gateway, or entrance. stand two stone
monoliths over thirty feet high, each
having at the top an immense bowl.
Passing through the entrance a stone
altar is to be seen in the center of the
Enclosure This altar is also composed
of stone, but the texture seems to differ
from hat used to build the wall, al
though similar in color. Two flights of
STEERS surround this elevation. which
| has an immense tree growing in the
center. In its growth the tree has dis
placed the huge stones of the altar and
the north side is now out of its level.
Parasitical vines and underground run
over the walls through the crevices and
hang in graceful festoons from the
branches of the trees. Alarmed at
mans approach beautiful golden green
lizards, with backs glistening in the
bright sunlight, dart to and fro through
the brush. but no venomous reptiles are
found.
By what race these buildings were
constructed is a mystery. The natives
do not know: neither have they any
tradition regarding them. To move
such cyclOpean stones must have re-
| quired immense labor and appliances,
and unless the progenitors Of the pres
ent race of natives were possessed of a
knowledge of the mechanical arts it is
difficult to imagine who were the build
ers. Similar gigantic ruins and inn
ages are known to exist in the Pacific
islands only on Easter Island The
origin of these structures is surrounded
with mystery and archaologists attribe

How st. Johns Place of Punishment %
pears to the Modern Traveller.
Before the Christian era the name OF
Patmos only occurs in a few passages
of ancient writers, and of its history.
if it had one, nothing is known; it was
when it became the place Of baniSl,-
mcnt of St. John the Divine. and the
scene of his apocalyptie vision, that ii
once for all attracted the attention OF
mankind. At the present day it is one
of the least accessible of the Acgea i
Islands, for, Wing to its remote posi-
ton and the unprOductivencsS of its
soil, no steamers ever touch there.
Long before we arrived. the monastery
of st. John, which is the most conspic-
uous building in the island, had been in
sight, browning the summit of z high hill,
like q vast sombre castle, with lis white
houses Of the town clustered around il:
behind this rose the peak of Ha"ios
Elias, which reaches the elevation
of more than eight hundred feet. The
scala, or village at the landing pla ce,
the two-stOried houses of which it is
composed resembles square, flat
topped box. as white as whitewash can
make it. This mode of building pre-
walls throughout this island, and, as we
afterwards found. in those that lie to
the southwark of it.
In shape Patmos may be roughly de-
scribed as forming crescent, the horns
of which face eastward; but its outline is
broken up by innumerable promontories
inclosing landlocked creeks, SO that,
when seen from above, it presents
somewhat the aspect of a strange poly
pus- Its length from north to south is
about eight miles, and its area is rug
ged and broken; but the most marked
peculiarly is that it is almost divided
in two in the middle, for in this part,
within Il distance of little more
than half mile from one
another, are two isfhmuses only a
few hundred yards wide, and rising but
lightly above the sea level. On the
southernmost of these the scala is
situated, while between the two stands
the steep hill on which the acropolis OF
the He'll enic city was built. The mar
row waist thus formed serves for a
boundary line to determine the domain
of the monastery, for while the south
ern half of the island belongs to the
monks. the northern part is the posses
sion of The civil community. At the
time of the foundation of the convent
no women We're allowed to pass this
limit, but within short time the
restriction had to be abandoned. The
soil of which the island is composed is
everywhere volcanic and very barren,
and its coasts are thanked by red and
gray rocks, which ever and amen break
into quaint pinnacles. The absence of
RAINING water is shown by the numer-
Gus wind-mills, and there are only
thee or four wells in the whole area;
the want of these however, is made up
for 10y ciSterns, and the inhabitants are
neve, obliged to import water. as some
times happens in bantorin.-BaEttst
